Brolin also remembers the time James Cameron (allegedly) got angry with him after he turned down a role in Avatar.

This year’s Oscar nominations are set to be revealed on January 17. According to Brolin’s IMDB, he has two films in production, Weapon and The Running Man, and will more than likely appear in the third Dune film. So, either the Academy gets it right, or else we riot.

Josh Brolin has a bone to pick with the Academy. The actor, 56, first shared that the Oscars got it wrong when they failed to nominated his “Dune” director Denis Villeneuve for the 2021 sci-fi movie. This year, Villeneuve is up for the award again for “Dune: Part Two.”

Josh Brolin certainly has a flare for the dramatics. The actor threatened to “quit acting” if “Dune: Part Two” director Denis Villeneuve doesn’t get nominated for a best director Oscar for the second installment.

Dune: Part Two star Josh Brolin has made his opinion about next year's Oscar nominations well known in advance.

Dune director Denis Villeneuve, a huge Star Wars fan, is still angry about this one aspect of the Original Trilogy.

Dune has found new success since 2021, but rival sci-fi franchise Star Wars is losing its grip on pop culture amid an aging and disinterested fanbase.

For decades, fans have debated how much George Lucas' "Star Wars" franchise "stole" from Frank Herbert's "Dune." We break it all down for you.
